Not saying we shouldn't vote, just wanted to make sure there are more than just two possibilities.
The other write-ins will get their single digit percentage points just like the last presidential election where I believe there were 10 candidates in my state. Romney and Obama got 99% of the votes and the other 8 candidates shared the remaining 1%. Same will happen here. ALPA and DPA combined will get 99% of the votes.
The only way we could end up with no union is if a majority specifically voted to become non-union.
